Something else that we talked about in that session. I asked her what's the longest time she's seen someone? She said, about 13 - 14 yrs, but your no where near that. She said, it all depends where you want to go with therapy, because there's always something that can be worked on, but some people see say 20yrs as a negative and others see it as a positive.

I felt that she wasn't sure how I felt about that and the next session I made my case clear and said, I dont see being in therapy 20yrs a negative, and I would love to take my recovery "all-the-way", and physically I could come here till the day I die, but financially I don't know how long I can do it for. Then I explained about me only working part time and my husbands wage being the main one and how I feel awkard about the lenght of therapy although my husband has never said a word about it, but 20yrs say isn't something I am running from.

T said so would it help you if we were to say we could still be sitting here in 20yrs? I said proberbly and I noticed today when I was talking about the breaks she mentioned that even in 20yrs time say, I'd still feel upset at breaks because we do see each other twice weekly and it is a close relationship because of that fact.
